Second-Best Medium Ash Dylan

Venus Jackson is the best medium in Seattle. A media-savvy flashy dresser and star of her own web series, she hears spirits and passes on their messages to the living with a beautiful smile. Venus loves her job, but she longs for someone who doesn't care that she has a supernatural gift. Someone who will treat her like a real person. Keya Jayaraman sees ghosts all the time, and she hates it. The famously grumpy and reclusive second-best medium delivers her surprisingly accurate readings with an unfortunate degree of sarcasm and hostility. The last thing she wants is to spend time with someone who she thinks is pretending to have the same gift. Venus and Keya don't know they're perfect for each other, but everyone else does, including the spirits, who may have decided to set the pair up on a date. After Venus and Keya receive a common vision of someone in trouble, they find themselves in an uncomfortably intimate setting-sharing a bed at a couples retreat, where they pretend to be dating so they can find out who needs help. For Venus, fake dating the grouchiest person in the world is the most fun she's had in years. For Keya, it's just one more reason to be grumpy, because the more she's with Venus, the more she wants their relationship to be for real.
